JOURNAL ASSIGNMENT

Chapter 12 - Diversity: Approaching Differences

Write!

Each chapter of this book will ask you to write reflectively about the material you have just read. What did I learn? What's the most valuable thing(s) I learned? What doesn't work for me? Why doesn't it work and how can I make it work? This is another way to remember the content of the chapter, so you might try it with your other classes as well.

Important! Be sure to use quotes/examples from the textbook and reference with page numbers for each question. You may also use the PowerPoint for reference. Please state the slide number. Use PowerPoint reference only occasionally per week and when appropriate. Your main reference source is the textbook. Put your reference numbers in parenthesis. Example: (pg. 10 or slide 11)You may also use web or module video reference which must be underlined.
